@EU_Commission What about Twitter?

@EU_Commission Please push PC manufacturers and companies to allow people to use the OS of their choice :)

@EU_Commission
This is actually great! What are the penalties, random blocking of the services at the network level?

Although we prefer the term #technoFeudalists to describe these entities (and entities #Microshaft, T'site Buyer, Akamai, Oracle, Alibaba, and Tencent which appear to be absent in the legislation), the term '#gatekeepers' is a fairly good indictment.

@EU_Commission Excellent news, I hope they comply and you enforce. Looking forward to its implementation, I will welcome any initiative to follow up on the effects of the implementation, what can a user do, like removing apps and adding others, which wasn't possible before.

@EU_Commission well done! Thank you.

@EU_Commission you forgot popular gaming platform Steam which is owned by Valve. You guys are fighting them in court for Geo-locking and already fined the 5 game publishers for making deals with Valve.

Steam is the same as Apple. You can’t download anywhere else. You can’t buy products anywhere else without making an account with them. Publishers are unwilling to sell games anywhere else. Valve is gatekeeper of games.

@EU_Commission @hgb This is great news!

@EU_Commission So if the UK hadn't left the EU I could "take back control"© of my phone and tab from Alphabet/Google. But thanks to Brexit freedoms Google are free to control my phone and tab. Next time some smooth talking politician offers you a referendum on something you know nothing about, stay home. Brexit was caused by the devious misleading the gullible.

@EU_Commission yesssss! I love the EU keep fighting for our rights! Thank you!

@EU_Commission What are the new rules for affiliate marketers like myself? I want to make sure that when I post on social media I comply with all the EU Commission rules.

@EU_Commission Being able to remove #bloatware from #android phone sounds like a dream to me.

I don't belive it is going to happen. It will ends up like ok you removed photo app - now half of system wil complain about it 😄

@EU_Commission
Wow. I don't see apple allowing 3rd party app stores. That would be so cool.

@EU_Commission

Excellent, well done.

Now can we add car manufacturers to the list as well please?

Thanks.

@EU_Commission
Good luck. Just keep in mind how Google and Meta used gangsterish extortion and bullying tactics when Canada passed a law they didn't like. They will attack the sovereignty of the EU and attempt to destabilize governments in their efforts to avoid compliance.

@EU_Commission So the #FAANG is dead. Need to workshop the acronym a bit though.

#AAABMM doesn't quite work

ABAAMM?
ABAMAM?
BAMAMA?
MAMABA?
MAMBAA? Oh, there we go, that's close. a little sheepish at the end though.
MAAMBA? Not bad. I like it. Rolls off the tongue.

Cyber-MAMBAA...
Techno-MAAMBA...

"The EU has just designated the cyber-MAAMBA overlords as Gatekeepers..."

🤔

Yeah...

@EU_Commission do something useful for a change and break them up into a million tiny mom and pop stores

@EU_Commission this is important work. Thanks.

@EU_Commission YIPPEE

@EU_Commission
